I shoot completely differently than I do with another camera. Maybe it's the quality, maybe it's the history, who knows? But I do know that I get pictures with my Leica that I don't with other cameras I have. I don't question why that is, I'm just glad it works. I do about 20 weddings a year, and the pictures that really "grab" my clients are my black and white "photojournalistic" pictures taken with my Leicas. The formal color (Bronica ETRS) pictures don't make them smile like the Leica ones. Like I said, I shoot differently with them. BTW, I really like those shots Rob. Great stuff. Gave me a couple ideas. :) Randy - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of clifford wright Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 7:11 AM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] Last weekends Wedding - 100% Leica And you did them with the "outdated" M6! As usual your photos are stunning, Rob. Great work. Looking at your photos is almost like going to a workshop and a hell of a lot cheaper.
